Meditation & Spiritual Teachers

It is often assumed that there are two ways of interpreting the world: a rational scientific way, or an irrational religious way. Spiritual Science offers a third alternative: a spiritual view of reality that transcends both conventional science and religion, and answers many of the riddles that neither can explain.

Many assume that enlightenment, or “awakening” as the author terms it, is out of the ordinary and extremely rare—the result of arduous effort— such as fasting, long deep meditation or yoga practice, travel to holy places, encounters with teachers thought to be enlightened themselves.
